    Screech? Is that what they call that filtered sewage known here as Canadian Whiskey?

    Will Rogers never met me.

    It's a rum. Popular in Newfoundland, and my house. (Although brewed in Jamaica)

      Hell no. Screech is the Newfie version of the the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster except it leaves you feeling like you've had your brains smashed in by maple cured bacon wrapped around a fresh Cod.

          No, Screech is a dorky character from a bad 90's sitcom.

            We're serving roast beaver at the office today, and taking turns at swinging a bat at a harp seal pinata! Sing along... "Oh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay. I sleep all night and I work all day. I put on women's clothing, and hang around in bars..."

              Sounds like when you get home from the office you should drink a Baby Seal: Club soda over a pile of coconut. A shot of Canadian Club Whiskey. A splash of grenadine for color. Served with a wooden stirring stick. :laugh:
